It always amazes me how a bale is made, grass gets munched and a bale is made 🤯🤯

After getting back from holiday we were ready for action and the wooly ladies 🐑 were well overdue their hair cut after the horrendous 🥵 weather we have had. We couldn't get them done before we went due to work commitments 🏨🏫 and rainy days ☔️ but the weekend was perfect shearing weather.

One girl was particularly ready for her fleece off and bowled James over coming out of the starting gate, and after laughing at them both having a wrestling match, Jess came to the rescue but couldn't do anymore for laughing!

We now have some very happy ladies, but some very sore backs and shaky legs 😫

Just want to give a massive thankyou to Karen Milner and Karl Aidla-Robson for looking after everything whilst we managed to get a week away in Cornwall. We had a fab time, more than can be said for the naughty animals at home, which definitely raised mums blood pressure!

We hadn't been left 24 hours before the cows got out into the hay field (they have never escaped before!), mums car was nearly wrecked by the bull who thought it was a toy, an escapee calf who decided it could jump gates like a racehorse and to top it off a ewe with maggots and a very out of season lamb born!

You really can't write it, but Harry found a tractor at an ice cream parlour which made his holidays and a big bottle of gin was brought back so we might be allowed to go away again 🤞🤞🤞

Since the Hawkstone Farmers Choir won Britain's Got Talent, James has taken it upon himself to start practicing his dance routine with new girl on the block, Raven. I some how don't think the 'through the legs' move will be possible by this time next year!!

🌭🌭 We did a thing!! 🌭🌭

A few weeks ago we did some experimenting and the sausage machine made an appearance! We never do things by halves and ended up making over 600 sausages of all different flavours 😆😆 they have gone down a treat with family and friends being our guinea pigs, so watch this sausage-shaped space for our new venture!

What more would you want to be doing at 2.30am as a 9 month old, when you are up because of pesky teeth 🦷... calving cows, obviously!!

As daddy says, cows make everything better!

Wasn't an easy birth for Dorothy bless her, a big heifer calf that was a bit stressed (hence the yellow colour) but all are well this morning, with Harry having a lay-in to recover 🥰🥰
